MSNBC guest Elie Mystal on Saturday spoke out about what he called “trifling” White men, predicting that “two out of three” of them would support “the bigoted, misogynistic” President Trump in the November election.
“We have to remember that eight out of 10 Black men will vote for [Joe Biden] who stand up to vote, “he said of” AM Joy. “” The only reason we’re here is that we’re fighting to catch the ninth Black man, because two of the three deceptive White men will vote for the bigoted, misogynistic president, right?

“Our bank has to play like stars, because a majority of White men will play like scrubs, okay?”, He added.
Mystal, the Justice correspondent of The Nation and the executive editor of Above the Law, lamented how the Democratic Party is making it difficult to attract more Black voters.
“If you look at what an average African-American experience is like in this country, it’s predictable, right?” he said, “and not just by American politicians or by Confederate lawn jockeys, but every White woman in this country knows she can take my job or my freedom or my life with some false tears and a phone call.”

He added: “That’s what the Democratic Party is offering to those men who are worried about this at the moment, right? It’s been too long, ‘Pull up your pants, don’t seem too angry in public’ .. you talk so eloquently about something [NBA star] LeBron James does, but does he speak at the convention? Naw, naw, Mayor ‘Stop and Fresh’ speaks at the Democratic National Convention, right? “A reference to former mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg.
“That the Democratic Party does not make it easy for … that ninth out of 10 Black men to participate,” he added.
Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his running mate, sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., Came under fire for her approach to criminal justice. Biden particularly supported the 1994 Criminal Code, which is accused of mass arresting African Americans.

Biden chose Harris as his running mate amid calls from Black men and others to choose a Black woman for that position. Biden, however, has made controversial remarks about race and some in the Black community have accused Democrats of taking them for granted.
In June, Black Entertainment Television founder Robert Johnson told Fox News that Biden’s comments about the effect that undecided African-American voters “did not show Black” showed that “Black Americans are an appendage of a party.”
“To have those thoughts,” Johnson said at the time, “you have to have the attitude that we, Black Americans, we have you.”
